Our focus is loving the unloved and providing educational opportunities to the forgotten youth of this country. Our vision is for every disadvantaged Romanian child to experience the power of God’s love in order to live life to the fullest; our hope, that they would then be influenced to serve others and be an example for the people of Romania.

Our History

Firm Foundations RomaniaIn 2005 Sarah Vienna and her colleague Steffi Vogel were asked to sing Christmas carols in the Brasov State Children’s Hospital. What they found were rooms full of babies and children without parents, wrapped in several layers of rags used for diapers, lying in cribs. Sarah and Steffi began to buy diapers with their own money and to visit the children on a daily basis.One diaper has turned into over 56,000 diapers annually, and the daily visits have turned into a global volunteer project. It is amazing that God used the simplicity of a diaper to start Firm Foundations Romania (FFR).
